Check the points, check the gap. Look for side play in the distributor shaft. If worn, the points will do strange things, close up under different RPM's.
Does a partial choke help?
If so, it's too lean. Could be water in the carb, partially clogged main circuit.
Pull the carb drain plug, catch what comes out. If dirty, rust chunks, water, that's what's in the tank and in the carb.
Check for sufficient flow. Should get a steady stream, not a drip or the flow stop. If so, there is a restriction, clogged screen, clogged fuel valve. Most have a screen in the inlet elbow at the carb.
A simple test, with the ignition off, air intake hose disconnected, hold your hand tightly over the carb air intake, crank the engine through. You should get a strong, steady vacuum, and a hand wet with gas. If intermittent or no vacuum, there is a valve problem. If no gas, there is a lack of fuel problem.
